I have never liked Pascal's wager because I think there is a lot to lose by believing in a God that probably does not exist--rationality for a start. Also I don't agree with the basic premise of the wager that God's existence is not provable by human reason. In modern terms--is the existence of God a scientific question? I think it is.

Which god would Pascal have us believe in, just in case? There are multiple religions and multiple gods. Do we have to believe in all of them, just in case? What about the gods who don't like you supporting the other side?
